Uysal and Jurowski (1994) found that there is a relationship between push and pull factors. Dann (1977) referred to motivational inﬂuences on an individual as push factors. These are psychological needs which play a signiﬁcant role in causing a person to feel a disequilibrium that can be corrected through a tourism experience. These intrinsic motives include escape from personal/social pressures, social recognition/prestige, socialization/bonding, self-esteem, learning/discovery, regression, novelty/thrill, and distancing from crowds (Botha, Crompton and Kim 1999). In the model of Leiper (1979), a

RESEARCH NOTES AND REPORTS

tourist generating region features motivations that cause or stimulate the ﬂow. Thus, people expect their needs for an optimal level of stimulation to be fulﬁlled by their tourism experience. Maslow’s (1954) hierarchy of needs theory and Plog’s (1974) psychographic theory are closely related to these push factors. This demand-side approach helps to understand tourists’ decision-making process. Pull factors, on the other hand, are generally viewed from a supply-side dimension. The force of attractions in a destination area is generally considered as exerting a pull response on the individual. Resources normally considered pull factors include natural attractions, cultural resources, recreational activities, special events or festivals, and other entertainment opportunities. Some destinations feature a mixture of these various resources to meet a variety of motives, while others represent one distinctive resource and target on a speciﬁc market segment. This study is a replication of a previous one conducted by Uysal and Jurowski (1994) who examined the nature and extent of the reciprocal relationship between push and pull factors for pleasure tourism. Data used here were collected from those visiting six National Parks located in South Korea. Based on literature review, 12 motivational items (push factors) and 12 National Parks attributes (pull factors) were generated. A pretest was conducted on undergraduate students in order to reﬁne the selected factors. An onsite survey was then conducted in six Korean National Parks during the summer vacation in 1999. The push and pull factor items of participants were measured on a 5-point Likert-type scale, ranging from “strongly disagree” to “strongly agree”. A total of 2,720 usable questionnaires were ﬁnally collected. To validate the push and pull scales, a principal component factor analysis with varimax rotation was undertaken. Of 12 push items, four with greater than eigenvalues of 1.0 were extracted, which explained 58% of the...

...One country’s flaw could attract a person to another country, people tend to look for certain characteristics in one country that theirs does not comprise of, and one country’s pushfactor can be another country’s pullfactor. Emigration is a personal choice, but defiantly there are reasons for everything, they could be as simple as wanting to experience something new, or they could be more complex such as living the life that one wanted but couldn’t have in their homeland or previous country, due to politics, religion, education or work.
Push and pullfactors are liable to overlap, the stronger factors that help make the choice for the majority of the people to migrate from one country to another are the political differences, religious freedom, education and the future, as well as labor. For example during the first half of the twentieth century Canada was the most preferable places to migrate to because it evoked more freedom, and opportunity to those with a poor life. Very similar to today people leave their homeland for a better life, the conditions in their country could be very pitiful, their present and future are being destroyed, and their life becomes cautious. A pushfactor which most choices revolve around is the political factor, because politics is the most powerful characteristic about a country, and it...

...overcrowded and many unpleasant factors resulted; and these are the pushfactors that caused people to migrate to New Zealand. Also the exaggerations and lies told about New Zealand were pullfactors that further enticed migration to New Zealand.
A pushfactor is an effect that causes you to leave your country. In the case for Britain; there were multiple pushfactors that caused large-scale migration to New Zealand. One pushfactor was: although Britain was a flourishing country, it was becoming over-populated. In the 1800s, during the Victorian Era, the population had doubled from 20 million up to 40 million. There wasn’t much space and jobs/money for a significant amount of the population as it had gotten so large.
Another pushfactor was that people in lower classes were not getting paid decently, which meant that they couldn’t provide properly for themselves or for their families. For example, skilled workers (like carpenters, builders etc…), sailors, domestic staff, labourers and soldiers got paid less than £100 every year. Young children in lower classes were often forced to work (slave labour), usually in mines and factories for very little pay. And so if you didn’t have a lot of money, alcohol was not only cheap, but also easier to get than pure drinking water. This meant that...

When innovation occurs within a company, they must consider the following innovation dilemmas, whether the product or service is a technology push or market pull, product or process innovation, open or closed innovation and finally a technological or business-model innovation.
Technology push is when innovation is pushed by technologist or scientist who pass this information onto the company, from there they will manage, promote and distribute this new innovation. This can be compared to market push, this is when companies create innovation based on what the ‘lead users’ are doing in that particular industry (Johnson et al, 2011). One aspect that has enable Gogo to overcome this dilemma, is by listening to what the market wants and ensuring they are up to date with the current market technological tends.
Product Innovation is when emphasis on innovation is placed on the finally product, whereas in process innovation is when innovation is focused on the production and distribution (Johnson et...

Youth Gangs Push and Pullfactors in America
What influences youth to join and leave gangs in America? This essay strives to seek and inquire an answer or explanation to this question. I will try to approach the answer to this question by analyzing the biggest factors of it such as the influence of social institutions, psychological behaviour, media and many more to determine the push and pullfactors of a gang. Understanding that the dynamics of gang membership can be separated into formation &amp; joining which will allow theories &amp; methods of gang-related research to be refined.
My first scholarly source “Understanding Youth Street Gangs” (Cliff A., 2012) argues that factors driving gang formation, social-environmental factors, &amp; social disorganization are caused at young ages. My second scholarly source “Motives and Methods for leaving the gang: Understanding the process of gang desistance” (Pyrooz D.C, 2011) explains the motives for leaving a gang, organized into factors internal (push) and external (pull), while methods for leaving the gang are organized into hostile and non-hostile factors. Furthermore, my third scholarly source...

If the motor vehicle engines start using alternative energy such as solar thermal , steam , gas , electricity and others it would be a real solution . Although there will be a reshuffle in the machining system to switch to another energy .
In essence , the best solution to overcome the energy crisis and prevent the oil in the future is to look for alternative energy and machines that use alternative energy . So in addition to saving the life of modern civilization is also to save the natural environment as it will tackle pollution is a major factor in fuel problem .

PUSH AND PULLFACTORS OF IMMIGRATION
“Push and pullfactors are those factors which either forcefully push people into migration or attract them” (1). Migration Pullfactors are the factors that encourage a person to move from their native country to another country of residence. Some reasons for people to migrate to another country are; that they have better chances of attaining employment, better education opportunities and a better quality or standard of living. A Migration pushfactors are a factor\s that are forceful or distress that drives a person away from a certain place. The migration pullfactors are the reasons that migration happens at all. Pullfactors motivate people to move to new destinations, and new opportunities. In order to pack up and move or migrate to a new country, one has to have hope in a new nation to provide for themselves more efficiently than before. Migration pullfactors are the fuel behind people moving around our world, in acts of globalization, (2)

...f you were sent to another EU country and you had to encourage people to visit Malta, what would be some pullfactors that you would mention? Why should tourists visit Malta?
The Maltese Hospitality
Even though the Maltese can be quite two faced with each other and quite the gossipers, when it comes to tourists it seems that we still have got our manners. Most Maltese are very friendly, generous and kind-hearted with tourists and we will go out of our way to make tourists feel at home. This makes for a warm and welcoming experience.
In the Middle of the Mediterranean
The fact that it’s in the center of the Mediterranean makes it even easier to travel to our island and you could also stop to countries close by while on your way here.
Easy and Cheap
First of all, getting around in Malta is quite easy since it’s a very small island and also quite cheap. In most countries, to go to the beach or to visit a park it would take you around 2 hours to get there. Here in Malta it’s totally different because all it takes you to go from one island to the other is an hour (four hours if you’re catching an Arriva bus).
Language and Communication
The fact that English is our second language obviously helps the English speaking tourists a ton during their holiday, which obviously is an important benefit.
Weather and Climate
In Malta, the sun shines almost all year round which attracts people living in EU countries which barely see any sun. The...

...PushFactor
The pushfactors can be devised into two factors. The first one is migrants move to Thailand from their origin state caused by political and ethnic oppression, violence or armed conflict, human right abuses and risk of persecution. These situations are often causes of mass movement. The last factor is poverty and the search for opportunities. Generally, the migrations from less developed countries (country of origin) to more developed countries (country of destination). In destination countries, migrants hope that will gain better than their country of origin. Under the economic migration can spread in two types. They are survival migrant (migrants leaving their country after related with the problem of unemployment and hardship of economic) and opportunity-seeking migrant (migrant leaving their country due to the scarcity of opportunities to enhance economic welfare and progress). For the survival migration can be accept any kind of job (unskilled job, low payment job and 3D job) because they don’t want to return to Burma’s problem and need to have income for their living. And that are reason for migrant are live and work in Thailand to gain the better income and better opportunities for their live and support their families.
Pullfactor
At firstly, Demand for (cheap) labor in Destination Countries is caused either by the labor shortages in...
